Looks like an iPhone 4S inside, including a very similarly-sized battery. The fact that’s Apple’s getting better battery life with LTE and a bigger screen just got a lot more impressive.

Thinking Way Too Hard About How Apple Decorated Yerba Buena For Next Week’s Event
Apple has San Francisco’s Yerba Buena all done up with its logo set in front of a wildly colorful backdrop.
Here are some things all of this could mean.
- The new, taller iPhone screen will support color images. As have all iPhones.
- Apple will be releasing colorful new iPods alongside the new iPhone.
- The new iPhone will indeed ship with a taller screen. This is obvious looking at the vertical orientation of the graphics.
- Phil Schiller has listened to Narrow Stairs one too many times while staring at the album artwork.
- The new iPhone will come in colors, Lumia 920 style.
- Tim Cook designed the graphics after taking some LSD he found in Steve’s office.

The UX31A’s big battery is easily removable, but the SSD is proprietary and the RAM is soldered to the motherboard.
Man, Apple’s hardware guys are real jerks.
